Sadly, I don't see this being a contest after half time. Adelaide by 66. Could end up being more.
We are just too well drilled and coached at present. Richmond looked OK against ordinary opposition today.
I was very happy we played badly and won today, I want crows thinking they have it in the bag.

That's just the thing, they won't be. As I said, too well coached to think anything like that. They will take the game on its merits. But they will win comfotably.

Depends. Do Richmond get to play their umpires again? If so, Crows won't get close. Can't win if you get stripped of momentum every few minutes and the oppo get gifted goals.

In an even game, Cotchin and Ellis suspended, Crows win by 45. Best team all year and they deserve the flag.
Yet if Richmond fans ever complain about umpiring we get told "no its not an excuse, you were shit"

Jesus. Some people.

I think Adelaide win the flag too, but Richmond also deserve to be in the GF and any shit around umpiring should **** off to the game day thread where it belongs.

And just for future reference, if a team loses a final by more than five goals then it doesn't matter if Stevie ******* Wonder was umpiring, whoever won deserved it.
